Hawkeye Logo and Visual Identity Policy

The Hawkeye logo and its visual identity are major elements in Hawkeye's branding.

Official logo use guidelines have been created to support Hawkeye's goal of producing clearly identifiable, high-quality communications.

The success of our visual identity program depends on the cooperation of the entire Hawkeye community.
